Looking for free or cheap PDF editing app

[maxcorpious]

I'm looking for a cheap or free PDF editing app for my iMac. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks,
Max

How about free? Use Preview which you already have on your Mac.

If you do a lot of editing, the only solution is PDFpen but it does cost $60.00. It is the best.


PDFpen: Mac PDF Editor - Edit, Sign, and Correct PDFs

Also, just to be clear -- PDFs aren't meant to be edited. That's kind of their whole deal. You can do some minor tweaks in some programs, but the entire purpose of a PDF is that it is a format where the content looks exactly the same on all platforms, and can't be edited.

If you need to do substantive editing of a document, you must first convert it to a Word file. Oh that will be fun.
